A Quick M45.

While waiting on other stuff to rise, I decided to dig out the old 300D and see if it could still hack it. 12 x 5 min shots on M45, Celestron 80EDF 'Onyx', Astronomik CLS Filter and Modified 300D. Processing: Images Plus, Maxim DL, Photoshop.

Looks like the old warhorse can still be useful!

Awesome as always Dave . :shock:

Dave,

This is one of my favourite DSO's! Nice to see the EOS still able to do its thing. There is something good about being able to shoot colour all at once and especially withj bright objects.

I also pursued M45 this evening and with lots of problems due to winds and clouds. I hope to have something tomorrow ... time for some zzzz's. :lol:

Dave, that's excellent work, excellent nebulosity and pin sharp stars - I'd hang onto that camera a while longer by the looks of it!

Cool shot! Its quality reminds me of superb film shots prior to the digital age!

Very nice Dave. Really like that. Been looking at the pleiades alot lately with the dob.
